For your recipient

Does my recipient need to do anything?

No, funds are deposited directly into their Orange Money wallet.

Orange Money in Botswana runs inside the Orange Max it app (formerly known as Yame), which also handles airtime top-ups, bill payments, and other Orange services.

What details does my recipient need to provide?

Their Orange registered phone number.

How does my recipient cash out?

Funds are available in their Orange Money wallet immediately and can be used for payments or withdrawn as cash. To withdraw, they visit an Orange shop or an authorized Orange Money point of sale and give the agent the passcode they received with the transfer notification.
